    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    OK, so I got a late start plowing through Legion Remix.... @Mrs. Haus and I are basically just hitting everything as a Duo right now, plowing through about all of it. She's at ~350 ranks on her weapon (Demonhunter) and I'm at around 510 on mine (warrior). Only hurdles we're hitting on...

    Bitcoins/Litecoins/Virtual Currencies

    I think it's more that people can PROVE it has no intrinsic value. But then the value became "The full faith and credit of the US Government" which was code for "You will use this as your reserve currency, or we will come 'democratize' and 'liberate' you."

    What vehicle do you drive?

    So they're building a new Quiktrip near my house. It's been a complete non-event in my world until I saw this sign go up with one big difference between it and any other gas station within a reasonable drive of my house... Pickle officially tickled.

    Idle Earl, home-made

    Did one more rebirth, and now this is the more real soft cap. Mantra all along for me has been "Get half your diamond count in credits then rebirth" so my rebirth count is still moderately low. But now this is where it's deterring me. Last rebirth (see post before this) was managed to get...

    We're already seeing Trump prep for a Stimmy cycle cloaking it as a "Tariff Refund". Question being what excuse they will use to pump money after that, as I don't know of any other real levers they can pull. QE Forever? Big interest drop? That would require a Fed that didn't want to...

    My company is having it's worst single day performance in over a year and a half today. Someone has most definitely stuck their dick in the mashed potatoes.. I'm thinking NVDA didn't outperform ENOUGH to keep that particular hype train rolling full steam and the result is Bears stepping...

    Home Improvement

    A number of the properties outside town I've been looking at fall in the line of "10-30 acres, existing double wide on property that needs work" type scenarios. Or a few with a pre-existing small Barndominuim. Perfect scenario would be we buy one of those, I spend a some time fixing up the...

    Stargate SG-1

    All those Ancient inventions? They were really invented by the Unas and the Ancients STOLE THEM ALL, then introduced Gou'ald to colonize the Unas to keep them down.

    Home Improvement

    The offers I have gotten on the house so far are all sight unseen specifically saying they don't care about the house. Although they're also all what I assume to be low balls, they're still something like 3.5-4x what I paid for the house in 2001. I'm leaning towards the less expensive fix...
